Old Bench



This bench used to be a swing on my grandparents porch. After my Grandma passed away, my Grandpa gave it to my mom in exchange for a nice wicker patio set. =) (He never cared much for the swing) My Dad put legs on it and made it into a bench and it has been at my parents house for at least six years, maybe more. When we moved here and I wanted a bench for out front my mom passed it on to me. As you can see from the first picture, it really needed to be repainted. So after having it for about six months now I finally took the time to sand it down and paint it. I'm really happy with how it turned out =)
